Open Top Easter

With Easter falling a little later this year, and coinciding with the glorious weather, First Great Yarmouth took the opportunity to give its open topper a run out in service over weekend.

First Great Yarmouth open top 32905 W905VLN in service on the 2 over the Easter weekend 
Whilst it normally appears on the Seasider 3 service that doesn't start operating until around the late May Bank Holiday. It was instead used on the 2 from Market Gates to the Barrack Estate which terminates on South Beach Parade close to the Pleasure Beach.

First Great Yarmouth 30954 YJ51RDO on contract duty. It was new to First York in December 2001 
Whilst I was unable to get a photo of it in use, Paul Copley did! York resident Paul was on a weekend break in the town with his grandchildren. However, in the short time he was able to view activity, he also saw a former First York bus on what is assumed to be a Bernard Matthews contract working.

My thanks to Paul for the information and the photos and I hope you enjoyed your short stay.
